JP MORGAN CHASE & CO. - JP Morgan mostly unaffected from the banking turmoil of early March - 04/07/2023 (GMT)

JP Morgan Chase & Co (symbol ‘JPM’) share price has been making consecutive gains in the beginning of the year with a correction taking place in early March where the failure of banks in the US shocked the markets . The company is expected to report its earnings for the fiscal quarter ending March 2023 on Friday 14th of April. The consensus EPS for the quarter is $3,43 compared to the result for the same quarter last year of $2,63.  ‘JP Morgan took a light hit through the turmoil in the banking industry mainly because of its big size, too big to fail. With a dividend yield of over 3% and with a strong balance sheet, the company is an attractive addition to investors portfolio.’ said Antreas Themistokleous at Exness. From the technical analysis perspective the price found support on the 38.2% of the daily Fibonacci retracement level after incurring losses in early March when news about bank failures hit mainstream media. The Bollinger bands are shrinking indicating the volatility is slowing down while the 50 day moving average is still trading above the 100 day moving average indicating the bullish momentum might still be valid.  In any case the levels of $134 and $123 consist of technical support and resistance areas since they are the 23.6% and 50% of the daily Fibonacci retracement levels respectively.
